I run a similar setup in Exim. You have to take care of _one_ thing:
The "mailman" list must be accepted on _all_ virtual domains that have
lists. Mailman sends email out with sender set to
mailman@${VIRTUAL_DOMAIN}. You probably want to modify your patch to
do that.

I see no reason for this not to be the only behaviour.
